@GergelyOrosz According to the FAQ, the point is to game the metrics https://t.co/OnXZgvGgg1 🤷‍♂️

Also, those metrics will most likely end up being used as ammunition for employee reviews and promotions where implemented

[Gergely Orosz @GergelyOrosz]

I cannot believe companies are using a tool like Pluralsight flow for sw engineers.

It measures targets like coding days, lines of code & target impact (whatever that is).

It's the definition of micromanagement. Good luck to anyone managed by this software. From an ad they run:

@mattklein123 @github What's your take on systems such as Flow by PluralSight which give managers higher visibility via metrics such as Active Days?

Would those be fair to use for evaluation or is any metric based on github fundamentally wrong?

Folks, @github statistics ARE NOT A USEFUL PROXY FOR CONTRIBUTION AND PRODUCTIVITY.

If your performance evaluation and/or hiring process is taking this into consideration it is fundamentally broken. This is such a huge pet peeve of mine. 😠

I also have my eyes on eBPF but I feel like talks have only scratched the surface

Learning a lesson in horizontal scaling at #kubecon2019 - 1 escalator is not enough to get everyone from Hall 8.0 to Hall 6/7

The talks and discussions are amazing though!

[Nicolas L. Drapeau @lavoiedn]

Learned a lot about how we could improve our migration process for legacy apps to kubernetes #kubecon2019

Also about texting cat pictures apparently 🤔

@palacerte Those damn kid watching other people play games instead of playing it themselves!

Now excuse me while I go watch people playing soccer on TV!
